A new addition to the Slim d’Hermès Quantième Perpétuel welcomes a new model in titanium. The new watch is not all titanium but a combination of metals in a round case measuring 39.5 mm in diameter. The middle case and case back are in bead-blasted grade 5 titanium, the bezel is in platinum or 18K rose gold, and the crown and pusher are in 18K white gold for the titanium and platinum model and in 18K rose gold for the titanium and 18K rose gold version.

Featuring an anthracite silver-toned dial with transferred Arabic numerals and mother-of-pearl moon against an aventurine glass sky, the numerals with their font specially designed by Philippe Apeloig stand out with light and airy grace. The sandblasted 4N gold-plated or blue-lacquered baton-type hands complete the design. While the date, month, dual-time, and leap-year indications are displayed on various counters, the elegant and graphic dial melts seamlessly into the surrounding precious rose gold and titanium or titanium and platinum case.

Powered by the remarkably technical ultra-thin Manufacture H1950 automatic movement, this authentic ‘mechanical memory’ ensures that the date of months with 30 and 31 days is automatically adjusted, while taking account of leap years by indicating February 29th every four years without any need for corrections. Adorned with a ‘sprinkling of Hs’ and meticulously hand-beveled, the movement also powers day/ night, dual-time and moon-phase indications within a composition measuring just 4 mm thick. This impressive demonstration of horological expertise may be admired through the sapphire crystal case back.

With its new Slim Quantième Perpétuel, Hermès unites the full spectrum of watchmaking skills. Mechanical complication rub shoulders with the skill of case and dial-making artisans, while a matte graphite alligator strap reflecting impeccable leather craftsmanship sets the perfect finishing touch. The watch is delivered with a platinum or 18K gold pin buckle depending on the model.
